FORMER Southend United boss Phil Brown is the new manager of Kidderminster Harriers.

Harriers, who sit bottom of the National League table, parted company with manager Russ Penn last week.

And they have now turned to Brown in a bid to keep them up.

The 64-year-old was in charge of the Shrimpers between March 2013 and January 2018 before returning for a second spell between April and October 2021.

Kidderminster are currently seven points behind Woking who sit just above the relegation zone.
